I want to learn Rust. There are so many resources available and I am unsure which one to go for, and if there are any tips on getting started?
I am a software developer by trade
Edit: Thanks for all the great replies!
Please, don’t ever use async Rust lol :( it’s so terrible to work with closure recapture. There’s really one way of structuring your code to keep the borrow checker happy and I haven’t yet found it in my projects lol.
Yeah I would also recommend avoiding async Rust as much as possible. There’s really only a small number of situations where you need it - WASM, embedded (Embassy), and unfortunately most of the web ecosystem forces you to use it even if it isn’t necessary for 99% of people.
Sync Rust - even multithreaded - is absolutely fantastic at protecting you from mistakes & giving an “if it compiles it works” experience. Async Rust on the other hand is full of surprising and difficult to debug footguns.
